Fortune and marriage.. Written by Margaret 7 (9/28/2005 8:13 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, I agree. nfm, penned by Kalyn

This is an idea that will have to wait until around chapter 12 or so, but in considering the making of one's fortune, and whether to wait for marriage, there is interesting food for thought in comparing C.W. and Anne, and Capt. Bennick and Phoebe Harville.
